After booking a room with a shower over bath in error (my fault, partner visually impaired at the minute) staff were very helpfull in relocating us in a room with a walk in shower. Very pleased with the new room and breakfast next morning was excellent.

Hotel is in a lovely old building and seems clean and comfortable. Staff helpful. I have no complaints about hotel itself. But the shower was hard to adjust and I nearly got scalded. Also hard to get into if you are older (as I am.) It's in a tub with high sides and no decent grab handles. (Also one tiny piece of soap to be shared between wash basin and shower! Is there soap rationing?)

Historic and quaint charm
I enjoyed my stay at the Rose And Crown, I couldn’t fault my room, it was very clean, the bed was comfortable and it had all the usual amenities you would expect. The hotel is historically old and has a quaint character about it, so don’t expect it to be spotlessly clean like the modern, characterless hotels. I would recommend the Rose And Crown to anyone
